  • Burn Time - To prevent tunneling and create a candle memory, the first time you light your candle, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the cup/container. Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time. 

  • Trim Wick Before Every Use - Always trim the wick before relighting. Trimming the wick helps the candle to stay alight, burn evenly and longer. It is important to do this before each burn, as the charcoal can cause the candle to go out. 

  • Putting Candle Out - It is always best to use a Candle Dipper or a Candle Snuffer rather than blowing out to prevent wicks from drifting off centre and to avoid wax splash. This will help to maximse the candle's burn time. 

  • Keep The Burn Pool Clean - If you get any black at the rim of your cup/container, simply wipe it away with a damp cloth, this may be a sign that your wick is too long. 


  • Avoid Draughts - Candles burn best in still air but if you can't avoid draughts, turn the candle periodically to avoid uneven burning and possible candle collapse. A candle in a draught may also start to smoke. 


  • Candle Storage - Candles are sensitive to temperature and light. Keep them away from heat and light. Depending on the type of essential oils used, some may yellow if exposed to sunlight, this is normal and does not affect the burning of the candle.
